Description
The Image and Video Lightbox, Image Popup plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via numerous page parameters and keys (such as ‘information_panel_text_for_no_title’ and other 'information_panel_*' parames) in versions up to, and including, 2.1.5 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for administrator-level attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
